like dickens.

i'm a liberal and i don't think i ever really buy a book just because it was by some liberal who pretty much say what i already agree with.

i would buy things like krugman to become informed and he is an actual economist.

but i'm not going to buy something just because some liberal pundit wrote it.

but this isn't anything unusual. it's why the right wing does well with things like talk radio. these people just want to read or hear people say things they already agree with.

i think liberals are better at things like telling a story which is why films usually have a liberal message and do well and conservatives fail in that area.
